(1959) A Hole in the Head
COMEDY DRAMA
Tony Manetta (Frank Sinatra) is being evicted and needs $5,000 to keep his son as well as his room at the 'Garden of Eden' hotel. And although he already has a girlfriend who lives above him, his successful brother, Mario Manetta (Edwin G. Robinson) along with his wife, Sophie Manetta (Thelma Ritter) will not loan nor give him any money unless he agrees to settle down with a lonely widow, Eloise Rogers played by movie veteran Eleanor Parker, who we find out had just lost her husband and child two years prior to meeting him. Not a memorable movie from Frank Capra.
